Good Friends, Good Coffee, Bad Weather

The past week or so has absolutely flown past. We have been so busy that I amazed we survived. At the same time, we also were battling a good old fashioned cold running through the house. I had it for most of last week and Kassidy came down with it over the weekend.

On this past Thursday evening, a member of the worship team from Door of Hope Church in Fairbanks came to stay with us for a few days. We had never gotten to know her while we lived there, but it took us no time connecting and chatting for hours around the ole fireplace. MAJOR kudos go to my favorite cornhusker family who provided us with some wood to burn while yours truly was under the weather.

Speaking of weather... well lets just say that KC is the DMZ of weather. We now live right on the line of where freezing/no freezing takes place. We had 4 days of sleet, freezing rain and snow. The sad part was that the snow didn't happen until the very end so it was just a dusting. We have about one and a half inches of accumulated sleet and freezing rain with a dusting of snow on top. What a mess!

Life for us is slowly but surely getting into a rhythm. It is nice to be able to have a schedule that isnt changing much for the foreseeable future. Of course, God could and probably will change all that, but for now, it is great.

We got to have our home bred rock star over for dinner on Saturday as well. Tim "Mr. Meekness" Reimherr and his roommate Chris came over for a taco feast with our guest from Alaska. I remember commenting how amazing it is to see the contingent from Alaska growing steadily. God is shaking things up and moving people around regularly and putting them where they belong. It is fun to watch!

So here is hoping that you and your family are recovered after the holidays, staying warm during the winter and staying healthy. We would LOVE to hear from you even if it just a quick email/comment saying hello. I would also love to see where people are at around the globe that read this blog. You two readers must be getting tired of traveling :) By the way Josh... thanks again for the coffee :)
